Kosi was my first love…
That was twenty five years ago.
I was five, a pudgy pretty little girl but I could explain that feeling…
Mystical and Magical you know,
The anticipation of him coming to our house with his mother fortnightly.
He hardly smile even as I wave my hand to greet him.
He was just seven but look way older, especially with his clean hair cut.
He only sat at the far end of the compound waiting patiently for his mother to conclude what ever business plans she had with mine.
And I, sitting quietly at the other end of the compound, observing him.
Kosi was my first love…
I remembered vividly the day he called me a “fat pig”, I was deeply hurt that I broke down in tears.
He was scared, when he noticed that I was crying but he refused to console me even when his mother instructed him to do so.
Though I called him a “stone face”, in retaliation, I stopped eating eggs for breakfast.
Mother wonder why…
And every attempts she made to find out why I stopped taking my favourite delicacies proved abortive.
